Posted for Chas, who will be back soon

It's "Make Art Monday!" So let's get busy and make some GREAT art!

Change a blend mode, play with a filter ..... anything goes as "ART"

This is just a little push to encourage your trying something new. You may post as many times as you wish throughout the week. Brushes, patterns, gradients, abstracts or anything that pleases you.

PS & T Adjust blends

Betty beautiful photo. Irv i love tulips waiting for mine.

BJ, haven't been feeling too good lately, but it seems I browsed this forum yesterday and saw a 2nd art pic you had posted. Wanted to comment about the 'fantasy' bird in it, but it seems to be gone now. Anyway, love the art.

Judy, thanks. I sure like your ladybug ring & watch in your fun creation -- 'time on your hands' in the gallery

Tennie, thanks for the comment; hope you feel better soon & post some art.
here is the crazy steampunk bird that flew away earlier. He was embarrassed that he looks so different.

I don't think your bird should be embarassed, Betty! he seems to be fitting in nicely.

I was playing with a picture I too when the Viking Festival was on. I was pleased with the effect (Topaz BW effects had a hand in here) so I thought I'd post it here.

BJ, thanks for letting the bird come back! I like him (and now I know I wasn't delirious).

Great portrait, Angela. Love the treatment you used.

My cold/flu is over (I hope) but allergies/sinus problems are taking over. Fooled around a bit with a pic of a girl playing in the sand. Tough photo to work with as the sand was so very white...but anyway, here it is. Will try this pic again some time.

Nine exposures, five minutes each, stacked layers w/all except the bottom in Lighten blend mode.

I like it, Tennie.
Sure looks like a Gauguin to me!

What great artwork! Thanks Betty for commenting on my ladybug ring and my restoration of daddy 0.
